SAN ANTONIO, May 2S-The fence cutters are
getting in their devilish work in Medina county,
once more, after a long season of idenese. In this
last instances George Thuken is the sufferer, losing
about mile and half of his pasture fence. The
act was a more than ordinary deed, and malicious
one perpetrated almost in sight OF Casroville, and
act, other than pure righteousness.
This calls to mind about two years Ggo, when
the fence cutters in Medina were thick as black
birds and we're only eXterminated through the
efforts of Governor Ireland, by special act of the
legislature.
